How to Make a Cherry Pie and See the USA

How to Make a Cherry Pie and See the USA

by Marjorie Princeman



So you want to make a cherry pie. What do you need to get started? Well, flour, salt, and a bowl would be a good start. Also, rolling pin, pie pan, measuring cups, spoons. Cherries too. But, what if you don't have it all handy? Well, you can go to the Cook Shop. What if the Cook Shop is closed for the July 4th weekend?  Well, then you better start from scratch!

Start by going  to New York, but get dropped off at the corner of Pennsylvania and Ohio. Look for coal mine to get coal to make steel to make the pie pan...

You get the idea. We go from place to place in the wide open country and find the raw materials needed to make the things we would use to make the pie.

A companion book to How to make an Apple Pie and See the World, the book takes us on a journey around the USA by riverboat, taxi, train, and plane, celebrating America in a playful adventure. And we get a recipe for cherry pie, of course.
